When I first joined...I remembered that wrong and thought it was a 4 sentence rule. That made it hard to post. D; I would sit and count words and sentences in my posts to make sure it fit that requirement. Such an idiot haha.

A moderator asking not to be banned? X)
But it's a good idea haha. I don't much need to pay attention to that rule, because I avoid writing specifically short posts. Which reminds me that I need to get around to memorizing the rules here. I have a general idea (enough not to break them) but I don't know all of them.

Eh, I wouldn't say you have to memorize the rules. By the time I was a mod, I only really knew of the rules in my section. Pay attention to where you post often and use some common sense. If you trip up, you learn; if people judge you for a mistake, they're doing it wrong.

Yeahh I find way more often people worried about people judging them for a mistake (or judging themselves for a mistake) than people actually judging other people for mistakes. Never met a person, mod or otherwise, that cares about a closed thread or a redirected post, haha.

True. I'd rather not risk being kicked off here, though. >_>

You must have a serious cascade of infractions if you're skiing on such thin ice.

Edit: For posting MLP...;_;

Such a fine point. :)

During the smod days, my favorite PMs were those that would send me messages apologizing. Made my day, though I hadn't judged them anyway.

I've actually never been infracted here. But the last forum I used I was banned from, so I don't want PC to be a repeat of that. I totally deserved being banned, though. But they never even warned me for it (aside from doing stuff like deleting my threads). I was suspended like five times, but never for any real reason- it was always a mistake on their end.

@Toujours
Okay, that's actually amusing. I wouldn't expect many people on PC to watch it, honestly. x; I myself don't really see the appeal in it, but to each his own~

That's generally why I usually don't infract people and why I'm pretty liberal in forum matters. It's just a forum and you should enjoy coming here and not feel like you're skating on thin ice, so I don't think it be taken so seriously.

I think I have a decent grasp on the rules of most sections since I often have to direct new users where to go for certain things... that and I was the type who read the rules like 10 times before posting somewhere since I really didn't want to make a mistake. I think the only warning/infraction I've ever gotten was when I went 15 pixels past the signature limit on another forum. >:

I vaguely remember how ashamed of myself I was when I finally got my first infraction. Then I got a few more and realized I didn't really care enough, especially seeing how I've never done anything too wrong.

When I report things I check the rules just to make sure the report is for a good reason. I'd be pretty embarrassed if I filed a false report considering I barely do it anyways.
